- URA 0-0 Tooro United
URA fired blanks for a fifth successive time thanks to a goalless draw with Tooro United at Namboole on Tuesday.
In a dull game played on a chilly afternoon, both sides started slowly with less chances created in the first half although the visitors should have led when Simon Sserunkuma beat his marker but there was no one to connect.
After the break, Sam Ssimbwa introduced Vitalis Tabu and Mathew Tayo for the ineffective Shafik Kagimu and Robert Mukongotya respectively.
URA started to dominate proceedings with Moses Seruyidde, Tabu and Joachim Ojera creating havoc for the Tooro United defence with the visitors resorting to counter attacking football.
At one, Sserunkuma beat his marker but his cross into the area was met by Allan Kayiwa but his low shot was dealt keenly by James Alitho.
He also volleyed over the bar from another Sserunkuma cross down the right.
Wasswa Bbosa withdrew the former SC Villa winger for Davis Ssali before the introduction of Baker Buyala also came on as the search for goals intensified.
There was a penalty denied when Ojera seemed to have been fouled in the area but referee waved play on.
Tooro United remains 12th on the log with 7 points while URA leapfrogs Express FC to move to 8th with 13 points.
